<p>On the website it states that if you are American that you should email the school about eligibility. What information should I include in this email? I lived in Saudi Arabia and Turkey when I was very little, so I am not sure if that would help me get in the program. Also can someone apply to more than one pre-orientation just in case that one program rejects them or can you only apply to one program?</p>
<p>My D did IO last year, is from San Diego, and hadn’t lived abroad. She explained why she wanted to do IO and that she intended to study International Relations. Just explain why you want to do IO!
When you fill out the application on the 6th I think it is, you will see how to apply by listing your choices in order. Any questions after you see the application, send the the pre-orientaion people an email, they are super helpful! Good luck!</p>
<p>@tolstoy2, Thank you for the responding. Could you or anyone else explain their experience of being American at IO?</p>
